This socket is a component used within the air dryer system of air brake systems. It's designed for use in heavy-duty vehicles and trailers. Manufactured by Wabco with MPN 8941015092, this socket meets OE specification for reliable performance and durability. Its dimensions are 38 x 40 x 39 mm, ensuring a precise fit and optimal functionality within the air dryer assembly. This little guy basically holds everything together – it’s how the air dryer, which cleans and regulates the compressed air in your system, connects to the air tank. It provides a secure, airtight connection. It’s a pretty simple part, but crucial for everything to work right. It also has an o – ring or seal that’s part of it, making sure there are no leaks. Think of your air brake system like a lung – it needs clean air to function. The air dryer filters out water and oil, and this socket is the doorway for that clean air to get into the system’s main storage. It's the direct connection point. Without a good seal here, you’ll lose pressure, and that affects your braking. A failing socket, or a bad seal within it, means you’ll start losing air pressure. You’ll notice if your brakes feel spongy, or if your air compressor is running constantly trying to keep up. A constant loss of air isn't just annoying; it's a safety issue. You need consistent, reliable braking, especially in a heavy – duty vehicle. You can find these pretty easily, Fixparts Online has a good selection, but more importantly, make sure it’s the right one for your specific air dryer and tank setup. Replacing it is usually a straightforward job, but definitely check for any damage to the threads on both the dryer and tank when you're doing the swap.
